12 And the sons of Re’uḇĕn, and the sons of Gaḏ, and half the tribe of Menashsheh passed over in fives before the children of Yisra’ĕl, as Mosheh had spoken to them.
13 About forty thousand armed ones of the army passed over before יהוה for battle, to the desert plains of Yeriḥo.
14 On that day יהוה made Yehoshua great before the eyes of all Yisra’ĕl. And they feared him, as they had feared Mosheh, all the days of his life.
15 And יהוה spoke to Yehoshua, saying,
16 “Command the priests who bear the ark of the Witness, and let them come up from the Yardĕn.”
17 And Yehoshua commanded the priests, saying, “Come up from the Yardĕn.”
18 And it came to be, when the priests who bore the ark of the covenant of יהוה had come from the midst of the Yardĕn, and the soles of the priests’ feet touched the dry land, that the waters of the Yardĕn returned to their place and flowed over all its banks as before.
